So... the score for the review would have been 6.1, but I can only give you 5.1 because this writing was so demanding for my poor neurons that I had to put off reading "Tutti a Zanzibar" by J. Brunner to an indefinite date...
The cover is very good and slightly unsettling, with nice tones ranging from light permanent red to dark cadmium yellow, all the way to medium cadmium yellow and light Naples yellow.
Periodic lecteric greetings from Dr. Adder.

Sure, this cover isn’t bad; it looks like a kind of zoom on grass just “steamed” by liquid nitrogen.
Chilled regards.

Well done "raghezzo" as Lino "Benfi" would have said once, good review, almost 5, rating 4.49.
If you write that the album has a lot of technique and little emotion, I believe it’s not for me.
The cover isn’t too bad, of course, it draws inspiration from the band’s name but it could have turned out better.
Inky regards.

Well! At this point, I would almost be tempted to elect you as 'master' Kraut-Rock.
Regards, of course, Kraut.

Oh! Goodness, what a tome-review.
I'll come back to it later; in the meantime, I'll take the monitor and bring it to the table where I need to have dinner so I can read it calmly.
The cover is already fascinating.
For now, I bid you farewell in spirit.

Muhahahaha! (periodical).
One of the funniest reviews I've read lately, rated 4.64 which rounded up becomes... you do the math.
In the word "Avantasia" is also contained the word Anatas... curious, huh!
Best regards, Anatastastic.

I’m the first… okay! Did I win something?
Then I’ll go back and read everything carefully.
For now, soft greetings.

I almost completely agree with what TinyBanks has written and expressed, but I would also like to add that personally, I never seek out the classic "hair in the egg" in a review, whether it be a "serious" or "minor" mistake; and if I think it's appropriate, I subtly or indirectly make it "highlighted" (we are not in school). Of course, I've also read excellent reviews like those from the "great" Paolo, which convey emotions in addition to describing the characteristics of an album or a film. I don’t want to debate the star rating of the review; I have certainly read reviews of just a few lines that earned a "bunch" of 5 stars... The rating should also consider the overall aspect of the review as well as the qualitative and quantitative effort. Apparently, despite everything, someone has become curious about the album in question. If I want to search for great emotions in a written piece, I'd go read a good book by P.K. Dick, for example. In fact, this "place" is called Debaser - Reviews written by those who want to. Certainly, sometimes, though very rarely, I happen to read a piece that strays from the review, and when it happens (if I like it), I’m happy. Of course, I don’t expect to find the ideal review that I would want to "visualize" on the screen; that would be rather "pretentious." For the rest, I send my greetings to everyone, including progressive ones.

I thank everyone for the comments, including Rhayader. I usually don’t like track-by-track reviews either, but in certain cases, it’s necessary, especially because some listeners might go through an album half-heartedly thinking they’ve grasped everything about the compositions and then embark on imaginative (perhaps even brilliant) tales that reveal nothing about the music. Sure, there’s a risk of becoming tedious, but not that much in the end, and this particular review doesn’t seem to have a track-by-track analysis that’s excessively long with lines and lines of descriptions.
In my opinion, regarding the red or blue pens of elementary school teachers, in certain cases, it would be better to take them away and give them to those who know how to use them to create something truly artistic and constructive, instead of marking insignificant "mistakes."
I don’t believe the three D's were included to sell more copies of the album; it is still a "minor" work. Furthermore, the writing is inside the booklet and not on the outside, so if someone buys it new, they can't know.
Anyway, it doesn’t seem like such a significant detail to me; personally, I just need the album to be valid in terms of compositions and sound quality.
A digital greeting to all.

So... Mr. Insolito's review is (of course) unusual; in reality, it's not a review but a piece built on a review or pseudo-review. In this case, I refrain from voting. The "writing" isn't bad, but it would have been better if there had been more appropriate and fitting terminology, not for the sake of politeness but because, over time, it ends up feeling predictable. Of course, I didn't understand much about the qualities of the album that I was already intending to buy. Insolito, in my opinion, you could do better while maintaining originality but also "review-ability" for an album. I won't refer you to September because I'm not a teacher; in fact, a long time ago (but not too long), I often clashed and nearly broke my bones with some "professors." Unusually unusual greetings.
